Hi an update on my 2 + 2 refurb. Done the brakes, electrics, fuel system, had the dashboard out twice (once to replace, then again to trace various wiring problems. New headlights, hood, seat belts, important things like momo wheel and gear knob, stereo, etc. Everything works now including an intermittant setting off of the current sensing alarm which I would rather did not work and when I replaced the cam belt I did not change the water pump as it looked ok so now of course it decides to leak doh!. Does everyone else have to undo the engine mountings and jack the engine up to remove the crank pulley? Anyway bearing in mind this engine has not run on the road for about 6 years I have decided to take the head off whilst I am at it and look at the oily bits. Hopefully I can get it unsorned for the summer and relive the good old days when I used to drive it around Hertfordshire. Anyway I was prompted to write as I think I saw Mathew say he was thinking of refitting his new hood. I fitted my new Glyn hood in the warm weather last year with the frame relaxed and two of us heaving to attach the front edge. With the frame lifted into its normal position the hood was nice and tight although I did have to adjust the position of the window runners and the stops to get a nice door fit. Disappointingly the material appears to have stretched now and the hood looks quite baggy. I thought it might stretch in the warm weather and shrink in the cold but it has certainly been cold here lately in the Yorkshire hills. I wondered if you had had a similar problem Mathew. Incidentally any other owners in Nth or W Yorks? Stewart
